Assertion: At a particular temperature, the value of the mean free path increases with a decrease in pressure.

Reason: All the gas molecules at a particular temperature possess the same speed.

  1. If both the assertion and the reason are true and the reason is a correct explanation of the assertion
  2. If both the assertion and reason are true but the reason is not a correct explanation of the assertion
  3. If the assertion is true but the reason is false
